A Walk in Your Shoes II

Chapter 5: Off to War

Zapp closed his eyes. Since he was going to be staying for a while, he decided he should try to get a room in the Planet Express building. After walking around, he found a good room. He walked in and found a couch and started to sleep.

Leela was still upset about spending more time with Zapp. She decided that while Zapp was talking to the Professor, she'd find some place to think. She found a room and sat down. As she was thinking, she started to fall asleep.

Leela was suddenly awoken by something rubbing up against her. She turned over to see a very ugly crab smiling at her. Leela screamed and ran out of the room, but not before punching Zapp in the face.

Zapp sighed. 'Why must Leela act like she hates me?' he thought. He walked out of the room to try to find a room to stay in.

Zoidberg kept his room, so Zapp couldn't use the dumpster. He walked around and found himself in the employee lounge. Leela walked up to him and punched him in the stomach. Zapp fell over and clutched his stomach. The Professor walked up to him and kicked.

"Professor," Leela said, "Why did you hit Zapp?"

"It's fun," the Professor said, walking out of the room. Leela followed him, leaving Zapp all alone.

Zoidberg loved his new body. Zapp was a famous, and the moment he stepped on to the street, he got tons of attention. Zoidberg had received many gifts, his favorite being the goldfish. It tasted really good with the basket of flowers he had gotten.

Zoidberg went looking around for something to eat. His only problem was that his new human body couldn't digest as many foods as he would have likes. He had already coughed up an aluminum can and a piece of a rubber tire.

Zoidberg walked up to an antique shop. He looked through the window and saw it was filled with all sorts of worthless crap that he would like. He walked inside and started to look around. It was pretty interesting stuff, but none of it was really edible.

Zoidberg wasn't paying attention to where he was walking and walked into an off limits area. He continued walking until he bumped into a little statue. It looked like a fish. Zoidberg looked around and made a squealing sound much like that one he made at that free buffet in Roswell.

The room he was in was completely filled with anchovy related stuff. Even though it was a small room, (How much anchovy related things are there in the world?) Zoidberg couldn't be happier. He started looking for a can of anchovies, but the owner of the store ran in.

The owner of the antique shop used to work as a member of the Nimbus crew. Like all of the crewmembers, he hated Zapp. He had taken the blame for something that was completely Zapp's fault. He had been fired and someone named Kif Kroker filled in his job.

Seconds after the owner ran in, Zoidberg found himself lying in a dumpster.

"Thank you!" Zoidberg called out before biting into an old piece of toast.

Zoidberg decided to go back to the Planet Express building. As he was about to walk in, he turned around. Two crewmembers were running up to him.

"Zapp," one said, "We need to go, there is a war."

"No, I'm not-" Zoidberg began to say. Before he could finish he was pulled away by the crewmembers, who didn't know Zapp and Zoidberg had switched bodies.
